Rule book has changed.... Nominations

[Jack_]

Appears it wasn't in the rulebook and they were told in the Diary Room that 'it's not against the rules to discuss nominations'.

Excellent news.

Whaaaaaatt?? :shocked:

[King Gizzard]

Terrible news

[In the Drunk Tank]

****s sake

[Novo]

**** sake this is awful

[*mazedsalv**]

I think they are keeping it to themselves, that would be brill.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

hmm :suspect:

[Jords]

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!

[*mazedsalv**]

The others don't know, they will use it to their advantage.

[bbfan1991]

Not sure whether this is a good or bad idea?:suspect:

[Jack_]

This lot'll be right up for playing the game. Could be good fun this.

[Ramsay]

much better when they can discuss it..way more game playing

[reece(:]

They love ruining our series, contact with outside world, limited viewability, nominations.. it's rapidly going down hill.

[spitfire]

Ohh CH5 sure knows how to destroy a great show.

[Shanna]

Grrr! I don't like it :( Okay so a wee bit of nomination talk now and then, allow it. But this constant discussion of it carry on...really straying away from what Big Brother should be!

[Josy]

Terrible news

[King Gizzard]

It's just not BB anymore

it can **** off. can't be bothered with it

[BBDodge]

They are going for the jugular in destroying this series. This is suicide.

[bbfan1991]

Hey, at least the Euro's start tomorrow:D.

[Novo]

I don't mind it happening for a certain period.. but discussing Nominations for the whole series is going to be awful, what's great about nominations is the mystery of who people are going to nominate and now were going to see them discussing it and it will be much more obvious who will be up each week, terrible.

[*mazedsalv**]

They are NOT telling the others. Calm down people. The other 14 won't know.

[BB IS ALIVE]

This will either spice up the series or make it sh*te, I really hope they change the rule. I just want to see them get punished more!

[Callum]

Don't know what to make of this, it's a good thing because it encourages game play but it's also a bad thing because we could see the same people being up every week if they vote in cliques.

[Patrick]

Game Playing [BB5] >>>>>

Just deliberate vote blocking to get people up [BB12] <<<<<<

[Locke.]

Awful

Thing is in recent years I have found the nomination process quite predictable and well boring. And block voting has always been a problem.

Discussion will lead to gameplay and more unpredictable results, and hopefully more variety on who gets put up.

BB is evolving!

[Maia]

Great let's just have a series full of blatant gameplaying and sly block voting rubbish, thanks CH5

[Holly Christmas]

This is not good news. Why do they have to mess with the innate quality of Big Brother.

Sigh.

[Jords]

Don't know what to make of this, it's a good thing because it encourages game play but it's also a bad thing because we could see the same people being up every week if they vote in cliques.

Thats always happened before tbh

[Samuel.]

It was pretty much allowed last series anyway.

Meh. Shows evolve over time. This both has its advantages and disadvantages.

[Maia]

Think nominations should be scrapped altogether tbh, put them all up every week in a vote to save, better that than this gameplaying nonsense

[*mazedsalv**]

How do we know its not a task anyway? If it's not, like I said, they dont need to tell the others. How incredible, just them 2 knowing.

[Novo]

don't really see how people discussing nominations can make it more unpredictable though, it will just be who has the majority of members in their clique putting the other clique up for eviction every time, at least when it's not discussed you'll only know the outcome when it's on BOTS now it's going to be predictable as ****

[Jords]

Wont stay like that Salv

[Samuel.]

You'd rather be voting for your favourite every week for 10 weeks or however long it is?

No one would.

[In the Drunk Tank]

The others will surely read it in the rule book too though, or they'll find out soon some other way

[Black Dagger]

Urgh, they are actual bellends.

It was good last series when Aaron used it to own Anton, but bar that, just no.

As much as I love Big Brother, I'm really beyond caring.

[Novo]

Very true Lotso

[Jords]

People will lie, get their arms pulled from other people etc.

[Novo]

Yeah there aren't enough clever people like Aaron this season to put the Nomination discussions into good use

[Maia]

No one would.

Isn't that what already happens on most of these other shows? X Factor etc. Would be a lot fairer that way rather than what it'll be now of the same people up every week and the undeserving ones slipping through to the final

[Lewis.]

I think it's great - always loved the gameplay element of the show and I think this will help to influence people into playing more of a game! Can't wait!

[Samuel.]

Nominations are too important to Big Brother. Evictions are too important to Big Brother, they'd no longer be these big events if it was the same every week. Having everybody up every week would undermine a lot about the show. It would be boring.

I agree. This is fantastic news. Nomination talk will make the show a lot more interesting.

[Mrluvaluva]

They are NOT telling the others. Calm down people. The other 14 won't know.

They others are going to find out about it surely though at some point. I doubt they can keep it a secret from them for the entire series. Somebody else is bound to discover this at some point in the future, either from them of from Big Brother. Unless the rules are changed again...

[Ryan.]

Great let's just have a series full of blatant gameplaying and sly block voting rubbish, thanks CH5

Exactly, it shall be brilliant :devil:

[Omah]

Sigh.

Yeah, the current production is so far from the original concept that, really, the name of the series should change ..... :hmph:

[iRyan]

This could be really great!

[Raph]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! This crushes me. Remember when Imogen and Sezer were banned from nominating after briefly discussing it? Imogen couldn't nominate for weeks. And remember Mo and Rex getting sent to jail for discussing nominations? This is such bad news - they really are trying to change my favorite show which is a real shame :(

[newsbb]

i dont see a single bad thing about this... if you all are big brother fans should know that the show also involves strategy, you get to know different sides of the housemates and prevents the house from becoming a complete love-fest.

[Flamingjoe]

Terrible news.

[Marsh.]

Terrible. Even if it's only for a while, people will make it abundantly clear to each other who they're nominating.

[Marsh.]

What's that gotta do with it? If anything this will make it a love-in with the blocks.
I hate block voting, where people group together to get others out, I prefer seeing their unbiased/uninfluenced thoughts.

[lostalex]

"This video has not been made available to the greatest country in the world"


please only post vids that are available to everyone. i feel discriminated against.

[Marsh.]

Have you moved Alex?

[Me. I Am Salman]

Well that means less punishments :bored:

[Kizzy]

Clever lad, read the rule book hehehe

[armand.kay]

I ame all against talk of nominations. If it had been aloud from the start we would of only has Charley for 4 weeks in bb8 .:bawling:

[HBB1508]

I hate nominations talk as it leads to block voting and you end up with a house where everyone gets on with each other - not good for the show at all imo.

[SoberLikeGizmo]

Chris bitching that Luke S and Aaron have game plans, ironic as he is the biggest game player in there. Really not liking Chris, but he is one hell of a player.

[swinearefine]

Don't know if I'll bother watching now. Really don't like this series so far.

[DanielLuis]

Why do people overreact to things like this? It'll actually make the show more interesting in nominations days...

[Jords]

Block voting has always occured, dont get that argument.

[Eosvox]

CRAP!!! The main reason (among many) that I preferred the U.K. version of BB over the U.S. version was that the housemates COULDN'T discuss noms...

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Erm they was allowed to talk about noms last CBB aswell

[Munchkins]

I L-O-V-E the news, makes it so much more exciting with strategy, but i can see why people won't like it..

[andybigbro]

Hate this idea.

Its such a terrible way. It allows ganging up and stuff. Its wrong. Nominations should be a housemates own choice and they shouldnt be forced into nominating others due to the persuasion of louder housemates.

[aman201]

This should never of been against the rules ffs.

It's a game and should be treated like a game.

Victor in 2004 had it spot on about what BB is about.

It makes it more interesting.

[rk3388]

Lydia was great today, and she reminds me of a bb usa player!
Thought at first she would be a floater but so happy that she wants to blindside Luke ( Never thought I would be using bbusa terminology in bbuk :) )

[aman201]

Yeah, this whole rule change makes this show so much more now.

Hopefully Lydia's lot beat Arron and Connor lot.

This is what the Jungle Cats in 2004 tried to do, but couldn't cos of the stupid rules back then.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Block voting has always occured, dont get that argument.

Exactly. Even when you weren't allowed to discuss nominations, you would see the groups nominating the same people. I don't think that the end result will really be any more different. Nobody's going to be forced to nominate the same way, there's still room to nominate freely. I think there's a lot of overreacting to this.

[Valdora]

I think it's obvious that they decided to try the BBUSA style. Or at least a hybrid. Because remember that half the people in the house will be against game playing.

Now if there is a BB14 it could effect that in terms of who ends up in there and how they play. But I think what it comes down to it an experiment.

I for one was getting tired of the old Big Brother formula and the nation as a whole was too. I think adding that element and watching the fireworks fly makes it far more interesting.

If it fails then they can go back to the regular style. But so far it has caused nothing but drama and so long as we also get to see genuine likeable friendships forming as well I don't have a problem with it. Let's see what happens because so far its resulted in 2 damn good HL shows IMO.

[Jords]

I quite like the idea, maybe for the next series, that there is a task every Saturday to win the right to nominate. This task has to be thoughtful and not some half-arsed jobby, because the prize is power. Half the house win the right (on odd numbers, round up).

This makes winning essential, and gameplay even moreso... if BB is evolving down this route. It prevents a large group forming and dominating.

[bananarama]

Terrible news. BB concept murdered bt CH5.

[Jords]

The old concept died long time ago, it needed something new.

[Lewis.]

If the rules hadn't have changed we wouldn't have had a brilliant show like we did tonight :love:

[GypsyGoth]

I think this is what the show needed.

[Blink_Me]

Hate the rule change. Takes the whole paranoia away.

[Samuel.]

Hate the rule change. Takes the whole paranoia away.

It adds paranoia if anything, not knowing who to trust, thinking you have a group of people in the house planning on mass nominating you.
